I use Harry's Lap Timer which records lap times but not g forces.
Leading evidence: 'Use harry's lap timer' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run anything additional' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I've run modified suspension with GT3 components and R compound tires for over a decade on the car.

These are people running slicks and JRZ type setups.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

For the 996 track junkies out there...
I just received my July issue of Panorama and was reading the interview with Horst Marchart. Here is a quote from that interview:
"The M96 (996 engine) would support a lateral force of 0.8 g, which meant at least half of the clients using the 996 on the track wouldn't have a problem. But if you used slick tires, the fastest drivers could have oil starvation".
I am not running slicks, but have sticky street tires - Yokohama AD08R. Does anyone have any data from their track days? I run at The Ridge in Shelton, WA mostly, sometimes at Pacific Raceway in Kent. I use Harry's Lap Timer which records lap times but not g forces. Would love to hear from anyone who has collected track data in a 996 on street tires. I lost my M96 engine recently and don't want to lose another.
I've read that article. I think it depends if it's occasional or constant G force. For occasional you can go over that and it's a non-issue. If it's constant like on a track, deep sump is mandatory. Paul Waterloo had some scary moments not too long ago.
I'm not claiming to be an expert, but I have never met anyone with a 996 who had an engine fail at the track, even after years of DE's, due to oil starvation. These are people running slicks and JRZ type setups. Again, yrmv.
^^ If they're running slicks and other performance upgrades, there's a good chance they've done deep oil sumps and/or accu-sump type systems...

Had a track day in the rain just after I put them on and was very surprised by how much grip they provided. However after a few track days, when they were worn pretty good, it was a different story - really had to slow down because of the hydroplaning.
Triple Black,
You can set HLT up to measure Gs. I frequent at Roebling Road and have several corners that according HLT will generate 1.1 Gs ( on Dunlop Durezza Z2s slightly modded suspension Billy's w H&R's) and haven't encountered any oil starvation issues.
Very cool. Thanks guys. Makes me feel better about taking my car to the track with the new engine. First track event for this season booked (and first since the engine replacement) - 2 days at The Ridge with Turn 2 Lapping Sept 4 and 5. Can't wait!
